I'm ChineseAlready FreeReview By Gary Smith, 28th August 2009
I'm Chinese are a 4 peice band that hail from Atlanta, Georgia. Stephen Dimmick brings the band together on the drums, while James Brasswood assists the rhythym section on the bass. John Rosser and Frank Wells are both responsible for the melodic guitar works, yet Frank heads up the band with his soft, yet deepening vocal talents. The EP, Already Free, is a varied mix to show off the full talents of the band. It is full of lighter moments, and kicks off with the alternate rock stylings which make you want to listen to the single over and over. Already Free is avaliable as a free download, so there is no excuse for you not to hear them!
The EP heads off to a great smooth start, full of melodic dual guitars... then it all kicks in with fabulous work from the entire band. 'Till It Burns' is the perfect way to start off. Franks gritty, yet soft indie voice works in wonders with the music, and the start of the EP keeps you hooked and wanting more. 'Deathbed Conscience' starts off with gorgeous basslines and steadily brings you into the mix. Franks vocals sound slightly different in this song, almost James Brown-like, but that is definitely not a bad thing by miles! This just helps to prove the variations that I'm Chinese can offer to you. The EP starts to take hold of some indie-chill out music from here with 'Clumsy At Heart' and partially with 'Capo Song', which are both beautiful peices of music to listen to. Stephen really shows his work with 'Capo Song' introduction also. This track also shows off the awesome soloing talents of the guitarists. There is, of course, a bonus track thrown into this collection of tracs. 'Hold Your Own' is their live recording from a performance at 'Eddie's Attic'. This is a nice acoustic track, which is always a nice treat for you listeners and readers out there! This is a definite must-hear that GigReviewer.com reccommends, so get that download here!
